The most beautiful newPokémonartwork isn’t found on aTrading Card Gamecard, but on the decks of the latestPokémonx Bear Walker collaboration. The company is no stranger to collaborations and unique merch, creating officially licensed goods for Pokéfans from all walks of life. Besides the more typical plushies, pins, apparel, and other common merchendising opportunities, the company also dabbles in more niche collabs.
For the latest collaboration, thePokémon Centerhas partnered with Bear Walker to bring a limited run ofgorgeous handcrafted skateboard decks depicting Eevee and its evolutions. All nine current Eeveelutions are featured in the merch drop, including Eevee itself, and each is only available in very low stock of 930 for the Eevee design and 720 for each of its evolutions. As a result, several decks have already sold out and the rest will likely be snapped up quickly as well, so fans who want to snag one of the cool decks will have to act fast.
